Initial analysis

The three-unit apartment building at 7828 S Oglesby Ave in Chicago's South Shore neighborhood, owned by Just Brothers Corp, has a documented history dating back to its 1928 construction. The building's records show two unresolved building code violations resulting from complaint-driven inspections conducted in March 2022, which are of particular concern given their open status more than a year and a half later. In addition to these violations, there have been six 311 service requests in the past seven years, though most of these appear to be related to street and parking issues rather than building-specific problems. These requests included three vehicle-related complaints (two regarding abandoned vehicles and one concerning a city vehicle sticker violation), a tree trim request, a finance parking code enforcement review, and a pet wellness check, all of which have been closed. While the 311 service requests indicate some level of neighborhood activity around the building, they primarily relate to external issues rather than conditions within the structure itself.

Risk rating

How 7828 S Oglesby Ave's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of Chicago code enforcement data — building violations, 311 complaint history, environmental enforcement, and owner track records. It estimates the probability that the City of Chicago will find a code violation at this address in the next 12 months. Lower % = safer.

What the score means for you

Lower risk — safer than most nearby

City inspectors rarely find violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Typical — about average for the neighborhood

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Higher risk — riskier than most nearby

Elevated violation and complaint history. City inspectors have found issues here before and are statistically likely to again.

Neighborhood percentile
37thpercentile

Out of 2804 buildings in this neighborhood, 1767 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
